man, there is hardly anyone on this forum that has anykind of nice rims on their fc's,or even people who take care of their cars for that matter, they will all rag on you and say your car is "rice" or what not if you have anything over a 15 inch rim. i dont know why people do this but they do! maybe its cause they are jealous or.... i dont know but i doubt you will see other than like 3 cars with body kits and rims on this forum!!!!!!!

your right it is retarded that people on this forum dog on your car for having nice rims!!!! my car is fully bomex kitted with 18 inch konig imagines, full interior, i mean the works. when i put a post of my rx7 on teamfc3s forum all i got was criticism from every ******* on the forum. so even if a person on this forum did post a reply to this thread and showed us his nice rims, some one on here will dog on him and say how "ricey" it is cause its got big rims or something. heres a link to my car: http://www.teamfc3s.org/forum/showth...threadid=20181

Most people here don't have a problem with people putting on a nice set of wheels. If you hadn't jumped to the conclusion that ever hates all wheels because they didn't like yours, you'd have noticed this. Some things people do critisize are cheap knock-off wheels (Which is what Konig's are most of the time ) that usually weigh more than stock wheels, which harms the handling of the vehicle both on and off the track.

HAHAHAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!! wow look around you, there are few people without nice wheels, and those who have a stock car, are saving to get stuff fro their car, just because its aftermarket doesn't mean its rice, ***. by the way 18's are too big, 17's are perfect and you have a body kit with those 18's thats why no one likes it, if its done right its nice, if its overdone its like a good 'ol box of uncle bens
this is for you

Well I got some dark 18's on my Turbo 2, so I am rice. Where is my ticket? I want one! 18's are too big for cars without enough power. I don't have that problem. Only other visual exterior mod I have is the Apex cans sticking out the back. I guess I am a double ricer! Make that triple because my car is primered as I am taking all the dents out and painting it.

Ricer and proud

idk rice is when you put 18's on and a body kit on a car made for 4 adults to sit comfortable, and then go and try some front wheel driftin. My rule of thumb is never larger then 17"

simmer down

look dudes, we all have rx7s.. which is in itself not a ricemobile or whatever the hell you call it. i was under the impression that ricers were honda civics and acura integras with ***** piston engines, neon-painted brake calipers, and heavy window tint... correct me if im wrong.

i just want to see some darker colored rims (not chrome/silver/gold/bronze/white/pink/poop-color). I was like the Enkei MM2s in gunmetal but i wanna see what these things look like on a white turbo dammit!

So let's see some pics or give me some ideas please!

ummm... did anybody else get stiff looking at that car? and i was under the impression that the rx7 is THE ricemobile packing in a whopping 1.3L of fury, the only other car that small i can think of is the suzuki swift and let me tell you, the name is quite misleading.
